it's not just tourism... it costs an absolute FORTUNE to live in hawaii.

milk is $9 a gallon. gas is probably still over $5
an 'average' house is 800,000.... of which is then taxed for property taxes.

that's how they pay for it....
basically, you CAN'T be poor and afford to live in hawaii...
frankly, if you're poor, you can't afford to get there in the first place.



yep, it's heading that way.
I'm planning to pay $45,000 in taxes this year. yup... some low life's salary right there.

Have you ever been to hawaii. You're smoking something. Gas last summer when I went in august was 4.10/gallon when it was the same in washington. Milk was the same as it is here. Fruit was hella cheaper, and houses were the same as they were here, washington. My aunt lives there.

Just how much do you make B...?

Man, I know our situation in Canada (and especially Alberta) is much different than in the US. All that money just being handed out to industries that obviously were not prepared to sustain themselves in a crisis like this, and don't appear to have any plan other than to keep doing what they were doing. How is it that automakers need a bail out when we have things like the "Ram Challenge" and all kinds of other expensive-looking bull crap coming from them?
As for people on welfare or other forms of laziness, we (the hard working people) will always have to pay their way. Take comfort in knowing that they will probably never amount to anything besides the sum of their junkfood * hours spent on the couch.

basically, a football field stacked 20 feet deep with hundreds. lol

haha my teacher the other day said 1 billion dollars would be a football field stacked with hundreds would be 6 foot deep so I think it would be a little deeper

B is known for making assumptions about places he's never been to. Whats new?

just think of how inflation/deflation sent german currency literally to the gutter after WWII. A heaping wheelbarrow full of it would get you a loaf of bread towards the end of the spiral.
